Removing the interior of a neighbourhood of the core curve of solid tori












0












$begingroup$


I have given a lens space L(p,q). What compact three-manifold with boundary do we get if we remove the interior of a neighbourhood of the core curve of one of the two solid tori that make up the lens space?



I figured out that I have to remove a solid torus from L(p,q) but I can not visulaize or proof what do I get if do that.

It looks like the definition of $L(p,q)$ you are using is that you take two solid tori and identify their boundaries along a slope of $p/q$.



A solid torus minus its core is homeomorphic to $Ttimes I$, where $T=S^1times S^1$ and $I=[0,1]$. Every homeomorphism $Tto T$ extends to a homeomorphism $Ttimes Ito Ttimes I$ that is unique up to isotopy, with $T$ being identified with $Ttimes {0}$. Thus, there is only one way (up to homeomorphism) to identify the boundary of a solid torus with one of the boundary components of $Ttimes I$. The result is homeomorphic to a solid torus.

Every homeomorphism $Tto T$ extends to a homeomorphism $Ttimes Ito Ttimes I$ that is unique up to isotopy, with $T$ being identified with $Ttimes {0}$. Thus, there is only one way (up to homeomorphism) to identify the boundary of a solid torus with one of the boundary components of $Ttimes I$. The result is homeomorphic to a solid torus.
